    What could have been a good drama about German u-Boat crews devolves into terrorists and PC Germans. It seems both the protagonists (brother and sister) all end up as anti-Nazis through a combination of bad writing and poor plotting. Every WW2 cliche you could think of ends up in this show. Silly

    It sustained the pace right from the traumatic opening scene when a U-boat was destroyed, the water filling the submarine and one man choosing to shoot himself rather than await a slow drowning. Grim but gripping.

    The USP of Das Boot 2.0 is that the underwater drama has to budge up to make room for landlubberly intrigue involving the resistance. On the plus side there’s Vicky Krieps, who was so ineffable in the film Phantom Thread, as Simone Strasser, a wartime translator from Alsace caught on the horns of a dilemma. ... Somehow it’s odd that she should be the best thing in a testosteroney drama about blowing up convoys.

    There have been plenty of films and series that purport to show the grim reality of war, not least Das Boot’s forebears. This series, coy as it may be about its status as a reboot, is an extremely capable addition to the canon.
